Schizophrenia - a serious mental illness in which someone's thoughts and feelings are not based on what is really happening around them - a really nasty one but Sepultura's album is even nastier! It's easy to figure out why this album is called like this - it's just sickly fast and brutal! While recording this album Sepultura wasn't really known outside of Brazil - they weren't even known inside their own country - but this album made them famous all over Brazil, though it wasn't originally released outside of the beautiful country where dancing and having fun never ends. This album was an great impact - real Sepultura's career has begun with it.

This album is probably their most underrated. At first i didn't actually like the album, but noticed how prolific each member of the band was with their respective instruments. The cynic would obviously cast this off as a rip-off of slayer/metallica/megadeth etc., but this album deserves to be listened to more than once.

Love the drums!!! Not a huge Sepultura fan, but they always managed quite a few good riffs and those drums pound. Beneath the Remains is quite an improvement over this, and has stand out riffs that in my opinion separated them from mindless Slayer worship.
